For a while now I’ve been trying to think of some lazy half-assed compilation post to do at the end of the year as the outgoing ‘TF Top 10……Filming Location Trips For (year)’ series has pretty much run out of steam and will surely need replacing from next year. They say a picture paints a thousand words so rather than write a thousand words about these photos, I’ll just let the pictures speak for themselves. The only thing I’ll say is that none of them were actually taken in Tokyo.
